Anisotropy of damage productions in crystals due to high energy electron bombardment are caused from two different origins. One is an anisotropic displacement threshold energy, and the other is an anisotropic distribution of electron flux near the atomic rows in crystals due to the electron channeling effect. By the n-beam dynamical calculations for germanium and molybdenum we have shown that electron flux at the atomic positions are from ∽4 to ∽7 times larger than the mean incident flux for the principal zone axis directions of incident 1 MeV electron beams, and concluded that such a locally increased electron flux results in an enhanced damage production. The present paper reports the experimental evidence for the enhanced damage production due to the locally increased electron flux and also the results of measurements of the displacement threshold energies for the <100>,<110> and <111> directions in molybdenum crystals by using a high voltage electron microscope.

Background: Synechococcus sp. WH8102 is one of the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in many ocean regions. Objective: The aim of this study is to identify genomic islands (GIs) in Synechococcus sp. WH8102 with integrated methods. Methods: We have applied genomic barcode to identify the GIs in Synechococcus sp. WH8102, which could make genomic regions of different origins visually apparent. The gene expression data of the predicted GIs was analyzed through microarray data which was collected for functional analysis of the relevant genes. Results: Seven GIs were identified in Synechococcus sp. WH8102. Most of them are involved in cell surface modification, photosynthesis and drug resistance. In addition, our analysis also revealed the functions of these GIs, which could be used for in-depth study on the evolution of this strain. Conclusion: Genomic barcodes provide us with a comprehensive and intuitive view of the target genome. We can use it to understand the intrinsic characteristics of the whole genome and identify GIs or other similar elements.

Twelve pseudotetrapeptides, Boc-NHCH(CH2Ph)CH(OH)CH2CH(CH2Ph) CO-Xaa-Phe-NH2 9-11, were prepared by [(benzotriazol-1-yl)oxy]tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate-mediated couplings of diastereoisomeric O-silylated (2R or 2S,4R or 4S,5S)-2-benzyl-5-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino-4-hydroxy-6-phenylhexanoic acids 1 with dipeptides H-Xaa-Phe-NH2 (Xaa = Gln, Glu(OBzl) or Ile) 3-5, followed by O-deprotection. Pseudotetrapeptides 9-11 were tested for inhibition of aspartic proteinases secreted by Candida albicans and C. tropicalis. The level of inhibition of both yeast proteinases was very low, contrasting with the nanomolar IC50 values obtained for inhibition of HIV-1 proteinase.
